Employment Solicitor | Bristol | Top 100 Law Firm | High-Quality Work | Hybrid Working

If you're an Employment Solicitor looking for more variety, better quality work and a genuinely supportive team, this opportunity is worth exploring.

A leading South West law firm is continuing to invest in its Employment team and is looking to appoint a solicitor to join its established Bristol office. You'll advise a broad mix of employers and senior individuals, giving you exposure to both contentious and non-contentious work from day one.

The team has built an excellent reputation for combining technical expertise with pragmatic, commercial advice, acting for businesses ranging from owner-managed companies through to large national organisations across a variety of sectors.

The Role

You'll manage your own caseload whilst working closely with experienced senior lawyers on more complex matters, advising on:

• Unfair dismissal, discrimination and whistleblowing claims
• TUPE, restructures and redundancy exercises
• Employment contracts, policies and handbooks
• Settlement agreements and senior exits
• Disciplinary and grievance matters
• Employment Tribunal litigation from initial instruction through to final hearing
• Employment support on corporate transactions

Alongside fee-earning, you'll have the opportunity to become involved in business development, client events and marketing initiatives, helping to continue the team's impressive growth across the region.

What They're Looking For

• Qualified Solicitor with employment law experience
• Able to manage your own files with appropriate supervision
• Strong client relationship skills and commercial awareness
• Someone who enjoys building relationships both internally and externally
• Keen to develop their profile and progress their career within a growing team

Why This Opportunity?

This is a firm that continues to invest heavily in its people. You'll join a collaborative team where partners are approachable, quality of work is consistently strong and career progression is based on ability rather than waiting for someone to leave.

The firm offers genuine flexibility, a modern hybrid working approach and an environment where business development is encouraged but supported rather than expected overnight.

If you're looking to join a highly regarded Employment team where you can develop your technical expertise whilst building long-term career prospects, I'd be happy to tell you more.
